From the bright alleys of Yijia Village, it takes about ten minutes by car to reach Baicuiyuan.
A small crooked bridge was in front of it, and when I got closer, I found that what unfolded in front of me was a sparkling water swing.
Only here, this water swing seems to be particularly conformist, unlike the large rivers and lakes that surround the mountain village, nor is it different from the twists and turns of the general mountain spring and stream, but it is wide and narrow, straight as a canal, like a pocket "canal" excavated by hand.
The April sun, jumping on the surface of the water, seems to splash gold into the eye sockets, making people dizzy. The shore is surrounded by aquatic grasses and reeds, and the greenery runs on both sides of the shore, deep and thick, and ripples in the wind.
In the music of the silk bamboo on the water, a picturesque reflection flashes by the side. Those crooked ropes are the bonds that connect them to each other.
In addition to the criss-crossing paths, the square fields have also been raised by a few points. Through the background of this river, in this place of coherence and land and water, the mountains and rivers show a wide land, showing the fields of flowers and plants and the reeds. The thick ground makes people want to reach into the soil, hold a handful in the palm of their hands, and praise it close to it.
This is the admiration and worship of the land. Mankind's worship of the land has never disappeared.
In this place where the water is woven into a net, stepping on the path, there is also a grassy pergola, just like the station set up by the ten-mile pavilion in ancient times, reminiscent of the warmth of "geese crying on the back of the moon, people speaking in the waterside village", and reminiscent of the grand march of "sending the king thousands of miles, there will be a difference", but here, people who come to hike are often laughing and laughing.
In the middle of the water, a row of yellow yachts and rubber rafts quietly moored on the shore, and several grass huts stood a few meters away from the river, which was the water rafting and sightseeing boat management office. Stacks of life jackets were handed out one by one, and a dozen people boarded the yacht in groups of one by one, and the rapidly rotating propellers lined up the green silk-like water surface, and the scenery on both sides of the strait quickly passed backwards.
The wind gently tweaked on the tips of the verdant reeds, and the dancing water birds chirped with a crisp chirp. If it is at night, presumably they will also chant the wind and moon with the water waves.
The cool water vapor was wrapped around the headwind, and the water splashed on people's cheeks, and the green eyes suddenly moistened in front of them.
Leisurely and comfortably sitting on the sightseeing boat, looking at the tens of meters wide water, reeds growing densely on both sides, water puddles dotted among them, aquatic plants have been woven into a green barrier here.
The water rushes south or east. The direction of their flow is where fish and shrimp, vegetables, melons and fruits are the most delicious. In addition to reeds, there are also calamus, cattails, cigu, barracuda, water arrowroot and so onions also swaying here.
It produces not only fish and shrimp, but also vegetables, fruits, and gorgeous flowers of poultry and plants. They are like girls hidden in the mountains without staining the impurities of the world, which makes people feel a little more fresh and happy when they see them.
The yacht shuttled all the way, and the bow of the boat chopped the waves, stirring up a churning splash. Egrets were startled by the sound of paddles and hovered over the river. Above this expanse of water, the blue sky divides the white clouds into glaciers. The humid and hot temperature of midday becomes refreshing under the glacier of blue sky and white clouds.
The fat fish frequently protrude from the water, slap the splash with their tails, and sprinkle joy in front of people, as if it is a premeditated performance, just right, and very accidental, sending people a happiness that can never be replicated.
The moment they jumped out of the water, the sound of and was also spread one after another, so the source of hundreds of sources was sprinkled with laughter and laughter, and the beautiful scenery on both sides of the strait and the temptation of the water attracted tourists to be dazzled.
In addition to such a canal, on the uplifted land, rows of fruit trees have settled down, far away, you can't see the varieties of fruit trees, but there are staff introductions: apples, pears, grapes, cherries, winter dates, peaches...
In this fruit tree-covered area, along with the local native chickens, this breeding method is scientifically called three-dimensional breeding, the land is fertile due to poultry manure, and the poultry feeds on grass seeds and grass worms.
Grassy fields are used to graze geese and ducks. I glanced into the woods and saw red- and black-feathered chickens strolling leisurely through the grass. In this deep water forest, their world is silent and silent.
The advantages of choosing poultry to graze in fruit groves are that they grow slowly, have delicious flesh, and have low feed costs, which can not only harvest poultry eggs, but also effectively eliminate insect pests on fruit trees.
In the face of the sudden arrival of the yacht, these free-range chickens are not afraid at all, still standing in the grass without chicken belly, shaking the crown in search of food in the grass. In addition to the herding chickens and geese, the wildlife in the river also survives here.
Pairs of wild ducks meet us unexpectedly, but they are not afraid of our interference, still floating quietly on the water, pairs, pairs of travel, and intimate neck-to-neck, without shyness to disclose their love. Fish coexist with fish insects and aquatic plants, extracting rich nutrients.
With water, its life is fluid. This is the truth that flowing water is not corrupt. The source of 100 extracts is both a variety of plants with green onions and an inexhaustible water source to support its abundant harvest throughout the year.
The climate here is comfortable, mild and pleasant, which does not delay the flowering of peaches and plums, does not delay the birds from wintering, and does not miss the growth of organic crops and fruits and vegetables. It is hard to imagine how, in this rainy north, there can be such a water town comparable to jiangnan.
The grains and vegetables from Baicuiyuan are based on the moisture in the local deep wells to grow healthily. It has completed the tall reeds, the low aquatic weeds, the wild ducks and egrets that play in the water, the various water birds, the perching here, the nesting here, and the green leaves as their marriage houses, as a solid guarantee in life. When the swallows flew and the egrets danced, there was a lot of life here.
Some people say that when you go to Baicuiyuan, you will never be afraid of the sky and environmental pollution, and you will not be afraid of melon, fruit and vegetable pollution. This multi-dimensional breeding base, mainly based on ecological planting and green breeding, from the field to the water source, realizes the whole process of scientific management and environmental maintenance, advocates environmental education and green travel, and provides the basic conditions for the development of eco-tourism.
At the same time, it coordinates and cooperates with tourists, operators, local residents, etc., to achieve a benign cooperation mechanism of mutual trust and mutual benefit. Their commitment is not to use a drop of concentrated medicine and a grain of fertilizer in the process of planting grain, vegetables and melons and fruits, to use the soybeans they grow to grind and sprinkle into the ground to supply nutrients to vegetables, improve the soil from the source, and deliver pollution-free, pesticide-free and healthiest vegetables out, safely reach every market and entrance, and safely reach the people's dining table.
Mention Bai Cuiyuan, the nearby villagers will think of a person, this person, first in the local business, accumulated funds and then returned to the township, he is Huantai County Yijia Village Party branch secretary, director of the village committee Wang Jijun. His deeds are a legend in the local area. He not only led the villagers to govern the village to "three seasons of flowers, four seasons of evergreen", "the courtyard is clean, the road is smooth", but also led the villagers to develop agricultural tourism, characteristic rural catering, to the road of entrepreneurship and prosperity, so that the peasants facing the loess with their backs to the sky became workers, and completely passed the addiction of finding work and earning money without leaving the village entrance.
Whether the countryside is beautiful or not, and whether the peasants are rich or not, determines the quality of an all-round well-off society and the quality of socialist modernization. And Yijia Village, a few years ago, the village was still dirty streets, sewage flowing, many abandoned houses next to the weeds, the village seems to be particularly dilapidated, now it is a patchwork of new homes, a few clean windows, flowers and plants, roses around the wall, a vibrant new rural style.
This is my first time to go deep into the modern village residence, villa-style house design, into the courtyard, the yard is where the villagers place utensils, step into the living room can see the stairs and the living rooms on both sides, a flower wall to isolate the villa from the outside world, both to ensure the safety of the community and convenient for people to walk in the garden, contact feelings. The environment is quiet, pedestrians are leisurely, the roadside flowers are dotted, and the road surface is clean and tidy, just like a modern peach blossom garden.
Walking on the winding path in the courtyard, admiring the low flowers with pink, white, and crimson flowers, in the courtyard between several trees, the air emits a burst of intoxicating fragrance, the village committee office, the reception room, the reading room, etc. are surrounded by the surroundings, the tables and chairs and benches are arranged in an orderly manner, the wipes are clean, and the scientific and technological books and literary books are placed on the shelves, and the atmosphere of rural culture emerges. However, compared with the houses in the village, the appearance of the building is not only not luxurious, but also somewhat rudimentary.
The arrangement of the environment represents the host's state of mind, sitting in the office of the village committee to enjoy the coolness of the room, tasting the aroma of books in the library reading room, you can feel a kind of cohesion and positive optimism of the heart. It makes people find that the more high-grade, ultra-elegant, and culturally rich the place, the more it can show its high specifications and so-called "luxury". All facilities and planning are focused on the welfare of the villagers.
In 2016, after repeated inspection and certification by Wang Jijun, Baicuiyuan Agricultural Tourism Development Co., Ltd., which aims at green ecological breeding, was formed in Yijia Village, Jingjia Town, Huantai County, and through the land circulation agreement with the villagers, the company has transferred more than 2,100 mu of land, planted more than 300 mu of various types of picked fruit trees, more than 200 mu of organic wheat, more than 50 mu of organic vegetables, and planted more than 20,000 green seedlings...
Up to now, the entire base covers an area of 78,000 square meters, and the production workshop is 35,000 square meters. The operators and managers of these projects are their local villagers. This initiative was genuinely supported by the villagers. Such measures have saved them the pain of not being able to serve the land and abandoning their families to work in a foreign land.
Once the working time, so that those who followed the generations of land is almost barren, after the land circulation, Bai Cuiyuan has the right to use the land, the villagers have become the company's employees after passing the basic post training, not only effectively solve the problem of surplus labor, but also let the villagers after the land transfer get double benefits, they have become employees from farmers, with the same labor and pay, reflecting different rewards and values.
In October 2017, Huantai County Rural Tourism Association held its inaugural meeting in Baicuiyuan, and the establishment of the association condensed the scattered tourism resource elements and further promoted the development of enterprises. They united to run together on this vast land towards the common goal of industrial prosperity, ecological livability, rural civilization, effective governance, and affluent life.
In aging China, there is such a group of people, they are old, but the children are not around. The need to survive takes them away from the old people, and the land that needs to be cultivated, the crops that need to be cared for and harvested, are helplessly thrown to these old people who are watching over their homes. It was not only the lonely crop fields, but also the young children entrusted by their children.
When the village built a large childcare institution and built a modern agricultural production line, these elderly people lived and played, production and worked. When I was walking in the fields of the various districts of Baicuiyuan, I once saw two old men of about sixty or seventy years old, who were working in the fields, and watched us walk by the edge of the field, and they straightened up the waist pole that was originally bent, and sent you by the side with the shovel in their hands.
You walk by, with their kind eyes looking at you, it will make people feel that the quiet time is more peaceful and warmer, and with the fields they manage, you will feel that the grass seedlings grow stronger and more vigorously, and it is they who give this vast homeland a silent watch.
In early summer, the melons and fruits in other places have not yet fallen into flowers, and the early ripening watermelons of Baicuiyuan have already been listed. The softball-sized watermelon, instead of creeping on the ground and letting it grow with the vines, hangs from the melon rack and is carried with a straw pocket. A ridge of melon racks, fearing that they could not bear their weight, was bundled low and strong.
This little watermelon, called "red jade" here, is like the name of a girl next door, and it sounds very moving. The watermelon that day, like its naturally beautiful owner, hung quietly on the shelf one by one, and was spending his jasper years for his future picturesque self, even the crisp melon with a large white skin also had a foreign elegant name - "Elizabeth".
In May, you come to Baicui Garden not only to enjoy the flowers and scenery, but also to taste the sweet and early ripening watermelon and crisp melon.
The pavilion of "ten miles to send" came in handy here, and the stone tables and stools were surrounded by people who were resting. When you travel all over the "water town" for ten miles, a piece of sweet melon and fruit is sent to your mouth, you will know the benefits of this pavilion.
It is not a long pavilion or a short pavilion that separates, but a station built for tourists to and from the turnstile, relieving fatigue while releasing the soul in order to seek a comfortable and calm mentality. A sweet melon fruit is sent to the mouth, as if to taste the taste of wine.
The eldest sister who works in the garden sees that you eat empty hands with both hands, and is busy holding up a piece of sincerity: "Eat another piece, this melon is sweet!" "Looking at the tourists in the same industry, they are all addictively drunk.
In order to facilitate people's visits, the parks here are given appropriate names, such as "watermelon planting base", "Nanyang Moon Season Base", "Sunflower Field", "Dutch Culture Corridor" and so on. There is also a "sightseeing leisure resort". Dark-colored wooden plaques are erected at the head of the field, marking the dry road waterways in the north-south direction with arrows.
Rural beauty, first of all, cultural beauty, rural tourism, what is needed is cultural leadership. From the leisurely canal ferry, you can go straight to the melon fruit base to taste the melon fruit, bathe in the fragrance of flowers and idyllic scenery in the moon, put away the mobile phone that is addicted to the flower beauty, go to visit the various ingredients that are indispensable on the table, pinch a handful of fresh leeks growing in the field, smell the rich smell of leeks, and also make senior gourmets intoxicated, pure, and no vegetable safety worries.
People come to the water, all love the landscape, where there is water, is the most beautiful place of scenery. In the north and south of the motherland, water and mountains can become a scene, and water and plants can also become a scene. Water nourishes plants in the water, crops and people who live near the water, soil hoards lakes and fertilizes thick soil.
Water gives people not only the warmth of the four seasons like spring, but also the rise of green, the meaning of life, it is the lifeblood of agriculture, and it is a powerful force for building a well-off society in an all-round way. The health of raw water is related to the development of the national economy and society, so water is more closely connected with human emotions.
Not far from the Baicuiyuan Agricultural Ecological Base, there is a famous lake called Mata Lake, which is located in the northeast of Huantai County, and there are eighteen scenic spots and monuments such as wuxian ancestral hall and Lulianjing in the lake, which is famous for "the northern jiangnan and the land of fish and rice". Baicuiyuan makes use of the advantages of the ecological environment of Matahu Wetland to clean up silt, purify the river channel, divert water into the canal, and build the original single field and wetland into a fresh and beautiful agricultural ecological base.
Their development ideas based on rural tourism development and supplemented by agricultural automation planting have shown us a grand blueprint for agricultural eco-tourism, and realized the transformation of production and lifestyle, and the road of rural revitalization with harmonious coexistence and development between man and nature. As I saw from a brochure: endless fields, wide and clear rivers, from the end of the field of vision into the Baicuiyuan scenic spot, as if entering the isolated peach blossom source, the beautiful and quiet environment is unforgettable.
The first time I went to Baicuiyuan, I thought of Ma Ta Lake, which is rich in reeds, pu and reed products, Ma Ta Lake, also because of the production of golden duck eggs and into thousands of households, let people know this "northern Jiangnan, the land of fish and rice".
In the early years of the Qing Dynasty, some people went to the south to do business, during which the introduction of lotus roots in the Area of Ma Ta Lake planted, since then, a variety of food production methods have spread, golden duck eggs, ginger cold mixed with white lotus root, is a common home cooking in the north. Some people even make a good hand of lotus root powder and lotus seed soup, and it has become a sign for selling tea.
In late summer and early autumn, the temperature difference in the north is large, it is the time when the human body moisturizes and protects the liver, a bowl of osmanthus seed soup is warm and cold, replenishing the heart and spleen, warming the stomach and relieving pain... The benefits of lotus root are well known. Locals love lotus roots, if the family guests come to the door, take the good lotus seed soup to boil and treat guests, no matter how much cold noise, can not catch up with the emotions in this bowl of soup and hot.
I once enjoyed the dance "Lotus Lantern" at the Ma Ta Lake Folk Customs Tourism Festival, singing while dancing, poetic, and the local people gathered folk wisdom in the process of long-term hard work, expressing the worship of the sun and moon in heaven and earth and the gratitude for the new era and new life in the style of body language and poetry literature.
Today's Ma Ta Lake has injected new vitality into Baicuiyuan, and the local government has carried out various tourism projects around Baicuiyuan to help rural revitalization, which has brought impetus to the green life of the local people to run towards a well-off, and the rich countryside has green mountains and beautiful willows and dark flowers, and the living environment and spiritual civilization have built an ecological and peaceful scene.
When I toured the whole Baicuiyuan and then returned to the path where I came, standing at the highest point of the rainbow-like covered bridge and looking down at the front, the full picture of its eyebrows and clear eyes suddenly attracted me and shocked me.
The broadening of the field of vision strengthens the sense of depth of the scenery, from different angles, you can see different scenery, the river is sparkling, the fields are delicate and the longitude and latitude are clear, a beautiful picture of rural revitalization!
This picture scroll is oriented to improving the comprehensive efficiency and competitiveness of agriculture and adhering to the goal of high-quality agricultural development.
Their pawn Wang Jijun said well, as long as we take the road of rural green development, take the road of cultural prosperity, take the road of common prosperity, and give rural revitalization a deep connotation of high-quality and sustainable development, then our initiatives to build brand rural tourism and build beautiful villages will surely fly all the way on China's vast rural land.
